About the Roeper School

An international leader in gifted education, Roeper guides students to become curious, engaged, and impactful members of their communities. Our two campuses serve over 550 students in preschool through Grade 12 from over 60 communities in southeast Michigan.

Academic Excellence

At Roeper, we believe in the power of each student to reach their full potential and contribute to the world in meaningful ways. Our academic curriculum emphasizes conceptual and experiential learning opportunities that facilitate specific goals for individuals guided by their intellectual and personal characteristics, needs, and interests. Our students graduate with a knowledge of how the world works and a hunger to play a meaningful role in it.

Creativity at Roeper

Gifted students need artistic avenues to express themselves as well as to promote abstract thinking and nonverbal expression. Roeper art classes provide a forum for students to express their personal identity and provide an essential outlet for introspection and sensitivity.

School Life

Our academic offerings are enriched by a variety of activities and opportunities for students to engage with one another, their school, and their communities. From a vibrant arts program to an exciting athletics department, we aim to nurture the whole child and offer a community where our students can learn, play, explore, and discover.

Thank You

Community support is essential to our success. We are grateful for all contributions of any size, which enable us to continue the mission of educating and inspiring gifted students to think as individuals and engage the world around them.
